Abstract:
Nowadays, customer service in telecommunications companies is often characterized by long waiting times and impersonal responses, leading to customer dissatisfaction, increased complaints, and higher operational costs. This study aims to optimize the customer service process through the implementation of a Generative AI Voicebot, developed using the SCRUMBAN methodology, which comprises seven phases: Objectives, To-Do Tasks, Analysis, Development, Testing, Deployment, and Completion. An experimental design was used with an experimental group and a control group, selecting a representative samp

Songbirds have long been central to the study of vocal learning and production, and in most species, males and females sing. However, in the best-studied species, the zebra finch ( Taeniopygia guttata), only males sing. Most theories of this sexual dimorphism had suggested that male zebra finches have specializations, e.g. to promote song, that females do not. We recently found the opposite. At the synapses that connect motoneurons to muscle fibers (neuromuscular junctions; NMJs) of the avian voicebox (syrinx, analogous to larynx), we found female synaptic specializations that support song sup
